completely tongue tied
eleven words past my lips
perfect quiet day
haiku my heart
i hope you will visit all the haiku
and honor them with
a comment.
i look forward to relishing each one!
truly. this "skimmed down" friday
meeting of hearts and minds
is a complete delight.
i not only love the diversity expressed,
i appreciate the time each person takes to visit each haiku
and leave their personal acknowledgment.
i feel we are getting to know each other...
we of so few words.
Your simply elegant haiku speaks volumes in few words.

I love this haiku, Rebecca! It's witty -- I've been feeling uninspired in the haiku realm these days and haven't participated, but I hope to soon!

Rebecca,
A lovely and sensual image with a sweet and witty haiku. I love the hint of "naughtiness" behind the "tongue-tied" and "only 11 words past my lips" fabulous! Thank you for this beautiful haiku and for your gracious hosting of such a wonderful Friday experience.
xoxoxo,
Noelle

I love the stillness and silence in your poem.

What a vision of peace! Love the words and the image.
I could learn a lot from this haiku. ;)

Even tongue tied, you present us a beautiful image in words and pictures.
Peace.

Not many words are needed when each one counts so much, especially when a picture does the painting!
Thank you a million though!

Oh dear, Rebecca, I am dense this morning:
ELEVEN?
All I can think of is football/soccer :-)
Love the 'completely tongue-tied' phrase.
Posted by: joco | October 08, 2010 at 04:42 AM
We should all take a vow of silence for a day now and then.
Love you, rebecca. I do.

i too am often tongue-tied! lovely haiku. Have I mentioned I love Fridays? You have created quite a wonderful thing here!
Posted by: tami | October 08, 2010 at 05:11 AM
I am naturally tongue tied Rebecca and Haiku's have inspired me to emerge out of my silence.
Thank you for hosting such a beautiful space where I open up and speak 17 syllables.
Loved your Haiku very much and you will see me here as a regular

I'm new to Haiku my Heart but not to Haiku - have been collecting and writing it for many years. Thanks for the opportunity to share! xoxo

talking is often overrated where the sound of nothing speaks loudest... and a whisper of i want you echoes... the art is a treasure... so glad to have found yr prompt, i look forward to talking and reading of love all the day long...

Hi Rebecca,
I've been away from my system for a couple of days, and moderation was on, hence your comments hadn't appeared! Both are published, friend! :)
Posted by: Leo | October 09, 2010 at 08:27 PM
Rebecca,I hope I posted this right. Just love your Haiku and the freedom t create without a prompt. Wonderful!
